What else can I help you with?
Where on the energy pyramid will you find the following?
from top to bottom of the pyramid: tertiary consumers... and so on. secondary consumers (carnivores) primary consumers (herbivores) primary producers (like grass)
How many trophic levels are in the food chain?
There are four trophic levels in an ecological pyramid. They are primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers.
What type of ecological pyramid cannot be inverted?
The pyramid of numbers cannot be inverted, as it represents the number of individual organisms at each trophic level in an ecosystem. Typically, there are more producers than primary consumers, and more primary consumers than secondary consumers, maintaining a broad base. In contrast, pyramids of biomass and energy can sometimes be inverted in certain ecosystems, such as in cases where a small number of large producers support a larger number of consumers.
What is the synonym for energy pyramid?
Another name for energy pyramid is ecological pyramid. It is very similar to the food chain. An energy pyramid has producers (green plants) at the bottom and three different types of consumers one above the other namely primary, secondary and tertiary. Primary:primary consumers are herbivores that feed directly on the producers or the green plants. Secondary:These consumers feed on the herbivores. Tertiary:These are consumers that feed on other carnivores and are on top of the energy pyramid. This means they are the last entity in the food chain. Eg: Producers-Grass Primary-Rabbit Secondary-Snake Tertiary-Eagle
Are producers always the largest level in a trophic pyramid?
No, producers are not always the largest level in a trophic pyramid. Producers form the base of the pyramid, with primary consumers feeding on them, and subsequent trophic levels following. The largest level in a trophic pyramid can vary depending on the ecosystem and the specific food web dynamics at play.
What ecosystem might have a pyramid of numbers where there are less producers than consumers?
If the producers happen to be large trees, they can be small in number but still have a large biomass, therefore allowing them to support a community of more consumers.
What diagram can be used to show the population of producers primary consumers and secondary consumers in the system?
Energy pyramid
What is the base of an ecologic pyramid?
Producers, followed by primary consumers, then secondary consumers, then by predators
What is the level of consumers that eat only producers?
This is primary consumers. They are the second level of the food pyramid.
Which diagram can be used to show the population of producers primary consumers and secondary consumers in a system-?
A food web diagram can be used to show the population of producers, primary consumers, and secondary consumers in a system. This diagram displays the various feeding relationships in an ecosystem, illustrating how energy flows from producers to consumers.
Where on the energy pyramid will you find the following?
from top to bottom of the pyramid: tertiary consumers... and so on. secondary consumers (carnivores) primary consumers (herbivores) primary producers (like grass)
Out of producers decomposers and consumers which has the highest number of organisms?
producers has the highest number and they are called autotrophs because they make their own food then the consumers are next which are called heterotrophs because they depend on other organism for food and the decomposers are on the top of the pyramid of numbers
A pyramid of number demonstrates that a community has?
More producers than primary consumers
Path energy takes from producers consumers decomposers is a called?
biomass , you put it in a pyramid, so a pyramid of biomass.
How do you calculate the numbers of organisms in a pyramid of numbers?
To calculate the number of organisms in a pyramid of numbers, you begin by counting the individual organisms at each trophic level within an ecosystem. Each level represents a different group of organisms, such as producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and so on. The numbers are then recorded to create a visual representation, with the producers at the base and the higher trophic levels above them. The size of each level typically decreases as you move up the pyramid, illustrating the energy transfer and population distribution within the ecosystem.
What is one of the steps of the food chain or food pyramid examples producers primary secondary tertiary consumers?
the top of the pyramid
How many trophic levels are in the food chain?
There are four trophic levels in an ecological pyramid. They are primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers.
